A Sex Merit Badge? Jun 18th, 2004 8:22:07 pm EST
Check out this article from Norway.
Now, I must admit, boy scouts would have been a lot more interesting if I could earn a merit badge for sex. The idea is, of course, to work out an interesting way to help educate young-folk about the dangers of unprotected sex and make it seem like a real accomplishment that they have been educated.
Imagine the difference we have here in the States. The public education system is largely left to be the "authority" for many youth, and the presentation is then left to a film or video and some handouts because the teacher involved is not willing or not able (depending on the PTA involved) to make it interesting and fun.
So how can we make sex education more American and yet also more appealing. I can think of a lot of things that would be great to include, such as for guys, the erogenous zones on a woman, the importance of romance to a relationship, respecting "no" and through that hearing "yes" much more often later on in the relationship. Maybe not having a one-hour film to explain all of this, but a full semester with homework and real research -- such as looking up teenage pregnancy rates, or rates of infection by sexually transmitted diseases.
Thoughts? What would you include in a quality high-school sexual education program that would educate and reward participants?
